Look out for shady Tulsa hotel

Dyno · 07-06-2010, 05:30 PM

One of the cheap hotels tried to overcharge me at Indy two years ago. Plus, they ran my credit card on one of the old machines where there is a carbon copy, and when I got home there was a call from my credit card company asking me about many attempted charges on my card overseas. Hotel across from the Red Roof Inn, not sure about the name. Dyno

Maybe that's a reason the track recomends a different one. If you have your cash reciept, I don't see how they could argue with you. I would dispute the charges. Can you do that with a debit card, like you can a credit card?

I've never had one, didn't know. All I have are a few regular cards. Guess a lot of people have them, we accept them here. I don't know how his cash receipt would not prove he paid. I really hate that it happened here in Tulsa.

Would it have been better, if it had happened in another city?

No, moron, that was the first LODRS here so I was hoping it would go well for everybody.

As a precautionary note, ALWAYS use a credit card for hotel and motel payments. An epidemic wave of $100 to $200 charges by the motels after you have checked out are becoming more common. ("Smoking in room" surcharges when nobody really smoked in the room) Very difficult to resolve unless it's a credit card and it seems to becoming a more than infrequent occurrance. At any rate, good luck with recovering your money.

Maybe WheelsUp doesn't race in Stock Eliminator or Super Stock? Maybe it's motorcycles?
